okay... exams later. woke up at seven just for the heck of it. but the really effed up part was that i couldnt sleep well last night at all. it just had to be the night before imm paper. great.
well. at least im awake. was at andre's yesterday and it was a blast revising. i mean, soon we got so high on answering each other's questions that we decided to do a nyp-sbm-ms0501 version of [the weakest link]. i think we hit $13000 before andre forgot the four steps in the experience newspaper study. oops. hahas he brought them back to zero again when he couldnt sing the theme song to sonic the hedgehog as well, because he kept reverting to the phua chu kang theme song. we had a good laugh over that. >_<
jason called somewhere in the middle of the revision, and we decided to use the questions he asked as wekest link questions. so andre geh kiang tried answering jason in chinese, which we totally didnt hear a word of because we were laughing our asses off at his chinese. ken did a better job at explaining commercialism but he got stuck at media imperialism.
so darryn decided that perhaps a hokkien version of the explanation would work for jason. it was priceless man.
"jason, ler zai media imperialism si simi bor? mm zai si liao la, bo si kan liao! company si kong si!"or something like that. my hokkien seriously erm, cannot make it. but i understood, so huiqi and i were breathless from laughing our asses off.
but halfway through the explanation jason told darryn he didnt understand hokkien, so we decided to switch to jessica who spoke in cantonese. that was hilarious too.
"jason, ngoh kong, lei study media imperialism tat si hao, yi deng oi study.."at the same time, my gong tong wa cnt make it too. then it was my turn. japanese! jason was clearly bewildered.
"eh, velda, watashi wa i dont know!!"had fun. huiqi was there with me, settling her university bidding whatever thing. which seriously stressed her out, together with everyone else. she was answering calls, monitoring bids, planning timetables, i dont know. whew!
the sports hall will be cold, i guess. better bring scarf.
velda.
